The appointment is intended to begin as soon as possible. Candidates should hold the Ph.D. or its equivalent in linguistics (or a related field with focus on semantics) by the starting date. Duties include teaching, advising and maintaining an active research program. Teaching involves courses at both the graduate (M.A.) and undergraduate (B.A.) levels and comprises core courses in semantics as well as courses that contribute to the semantics curriculum more broadly or complement the department's current offerings, especially in the areas of cognitive science. Candidates should therefore have the relevant teaching and research experience. It is also expected that the successful candidate will participate in the planned DFG Cooperative Research Center SFB 991 'The Structures of Representation in Language, Science and Cognition.' Experience in obtaining external funding is highly desirable. Formal requirements also include the relevant scientific accomplishments and teaching experience, following §36 of the North Rhine-Westphalia University statute. To assure fullest consideration, applications should be received by March 23, 2011. Applications marked with the reference number 04 B 11-3.1 and the usual materials (cover letter, CV, statements of research and teaching interests, list of the most representative publications) should be sent to the address below. Do not submit originals, as they will not be returned to you and destroyed once the selection process is completed. The Department welcomes international applications; the appointed candidate may offer courses in English or in German. The Heinrich-Heine-University is an equal opportunity employer and encourages applications from qualified women, minorities and handicapped applicants (following SGB IX). Women will be given preference in case of equal qualifications. Part-time employment is possible, provided there are no compelling employment reasons against it in particular cases.
